Pride Events
GOAL is participating in pride events between May 30th and June 28th. We request that all GOAL members complete a short survey to help us gauge participation.
The NYPD has an Administrative Guide procedure for attending fraternal events and parades on job time at the discretion of their commanding officer. Please contact your commanding officer or administrative office if you would like to participate in an event on job time prior to asking GOAL for assistance. There are a limited number of excusals for the Queens Pride Parade and 1PP Pride. If you get an excusal, you will be assigned to Employee Relations for your tour and are working the event. You will be expected to set up and break down the event.
Please register for pride events by using our pride event survey, and as always, please contact us with any questions.
